Karen K & the Jitterbugs (featuring Karen Kalafatas, or Karen “K” to her fans) have been delighting families up and down the east coast since the release of their debut album, Pancakes for Dinner, in early 2011.
Based out of Brooklyn, NY & Arlington, MA, Karen K & her Jitterbugs are rising stars in the “kindie” music scene – a term coined for the blend of kids music and indie rock – thanks to their eclectic sound and Karen Ks well-written, memorable songs.
As upbeat and danceable as they are humorous and relatable (take “That’s What I’m Wearing Today” about a tot attempting to dress herself in the morning, or the title Pancakes track about a mom delighting her offspring by replacing dinner with breakfast), parents find themselves singing along to the band's catchy tunes as their tots dance happily in the aisles.
A former musical theater veteran with powerhouse vocals, Karen K’s immeasurable energy, infectious charm and innate ability to connect with audience members young and old make her as likable as she is listenable.
